This weekend, the Scarlet Knights will host hundreds of prospects on campus for their Friday Knight Skills Camp and Big Man Academy, events designed to get top prospects on campus for in–person evaluations and recruitment.

Friday Knight Skills Camp is geared
towards quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, linebackers and
defensive backs and will take place Friday, June 6 from to 3 p.m. (ET) to 10
p.m.

The Big Man Academy allows
for evaluation of offensive and defensive lineman, and will be held Saturday,
June 7 from 8 a.m. (ET) to 3 p.m.

A second installation of the
big man event will occur on June 20 while a second skills event will take place
June 21.

The events usually start out
with recruit measurements being taken, then moves into warm-ups, position work
and one-on-ones. Top recruits or players who have stood out throughout the day
will also receive a tour of the facilities and the opportunity to meet with
coaches one-on-one.

Head coach Kyle Flood
also stressed the importance of in-person evaluations of players.

"I know there's
a lot of ways that players get rated nowadays, but I think for every coach at
every school, the most valuable evaluation is the live evaluation," he said. "I
think that's why you see that kind of number for us."

There are
multiple recruits expected on campus this weekend. See below for a list of
recruits who have confirmed to NJ.com that they'll be in attendance.

Friday Knight Skills Camp

Ahmir Mitchell, WR, Cedar Creek
(2016): Mitchell –
the younger brother of Damon Mitchell, a redshirt freshman QB at the University
of Arkansas – is one of the top projected players in the recruiting
class of 2016 and already holds a Rutgers offer. He says he'll be in
attendance.

Brad Hawkins, WR, Camden (2016):
Hawkins, like Mitchell, also has the goods to become a top national prospect
for 2016. He already holds upwards of 10 offers from Rutgers, Florida, Michigan
State, Ohio State, South Carolina and others.

Lonnie Moore, WR, Paul VI (2016): Moore
has begun to make a name for himself on the 7-on-7 scene due to his
quick-twitch style of play and ability to turn quick hitches, outs an in routes
into big plays. He projects as a slot receiver at the next level and multiple
FBS schools have taken notice.

Darius Fullwood, DE, Good Counsel
(Olney, Md.) (2015): Fullwood holds upwards of 20 offers including tenders from
Alabama, Ohio State, Florida State and Penn State. Rutgers has yet to offer, so
getting a recruit of this magnitude is a huge score, in itself, for the Scarlet
Knights.

Saifullah Adam Kakar, DT, Toms RiverNorth (2015): The Rutgers staff will
finally get the opportunity to evaluate Kakar in-person. Kakar has had a strong
start to the offseason winning Defensive Line MVP honors at the NUC Five-Star
East and putting forth a strong performance at Nike Football Training Camp–N.J.

Brandon Simon, DE, Don Bosco (2016): Simon
was one of Paramus Catholic's top defenders in 2013 before transferring from
the team to Don Bosco mid-season. He is currently flying under the radar but is
one of the most talented edge rushers in the state. So it'll be interesting to
see how he fares after earning the distinction of being one of the top
underclassmen and top defensive linemen overall at Rivals Camp-Columbus, Ohio.
